Runway incursions are a major factor in aviation safety. While many things have been done to reduce the accident rate in General Aviation and the Air Carrier Industry, both sides of the aviation house are still experiencing far too many runway incursions. This could be the result of "Read back - Hear back" issues, poor airport signage, pilot inattention/knowledge or a combination of factors.
Runway safety is a major concern for all pilots and if you have been around aviation
for a long period of time you have probably seen some close calls on the runways and taxiways, or even been involved in some yourself.
Come learn about this Airport and what the Local Runway Safety Action Team (LRSAT) has to say about the airfield. Come and give your input to the Team so
they can work on improving the airport for all who fly there.
Pilot airspace deviations continue to be a major risk in the national airspace system. To reduce the chance that you might be involved in an airspace deviation incident, you are highly encouraged to take an on-line learning center course on www.faasafety.gov. Or search the learning library for associated guidance on airspace incursions. Remember, safe and prudent airmen have superior situational awareness and have a plan to keep it that way.
Thanks! A message from your local FAASTeam.
